A Chemical Peel

A Chemical Peel
A mild to moderate chemical peel uses glycolic or alpha-hydroxy acid to exfoliate aged and damaged skin, allowing new skin to regenerate and take its place. It reduces fine lines, age spots, acne & whitening.

Chemical peels are usually performed on an outpatient basis and do not require any anesthesia. A series of three to five peels, performed in two-week intervals, may be required to achieve desirable results.
